    Beautiful hotel! Quite stunning views of the city! There is a food court on 4 and sit down restaurants on 6. Don't be fooled you can take any elevator! Great place to stay! The staff is very friendly!

    Designed in the 1970s, it is supposedly one of the most photographed buildings in the world. Its top-floor Bonavista Lounge is big with fans of rotating lounges (i.e., everyone). Read more

    Subway sandwiches? Take the escalators between the yellow and green towers to the 6th floor (608), 10am-6pm. Enjoy the restaurants and shops on the 4th & 6th floor; view the city - red elevator to 35!

    Come and walk around this amazing building. Don't forget to eat the wonderful BonaVista Lounge that rotates and allows you to enjoy a complete 360 degree view of Los Angeles.

    Great location, clean rooms, and very friendly staff. Love the lobby with the bar and fountains. This is where I will be staying every future trip to LA. I'm sold.

    The Bonaventure is always a fun place to stay and has a great Hollywood history. However, the property is starting to show its age - dark interiors and a layout that is not always easy to maneuver.

    I needed a lot of strange and specific help, and the staff has been nothing but accommodating. The concierge changed $400 into quarters without questioning it - I was amazed! Love it.

    They swear the bed is a king size, but it's really a queen. I'm just as close to my husband as I am at home. We just slept in a king at the hilton last month and we could have fit 3 more people!

    This is an awesome place to stay and network with CTA. There are decent food options onsite, even more available within easy walking distance.

    Great rooms, scenic elevators, and nice service. Disappointed that they only have valet parking available for overnight guests. Wifi is consistent and good.

    Love this hotel! If your at the bar in the lobby, ask for Vangie or Viet to make your drinks. They are awesome and fun to chat with. Stayed here for two weeks last month and back again. lOVE LA!!!!!!!

    AX goers should consider coming here. Rooms are a little small but most if your time is spent at the con and it has some of the cheapest overnight parking if you go through the AX block.

    This is a self-contained universe. Dentist? Doctor? Spa? LA financial center? Subway sandwiches? Pub? Swanky restaurant? Night club? It's ALL here! Best Westin in SoCal, hands-down.

    I like the variety of amenities but unfortunate that there aren't as many shops or great eateries. So much potential for The Westin to be great!

    It cannot be understated how weird but fascinating this building is. Walk around on all the retail floors, it's like its own (half-deserted) city. Def go up to the Bona Vista lounge - amazing view.

    Hotel allows late checkout if they have availabilities, they have Asian congee and miso with all kinds of condiments (even thousand year old and duck eggs!) in breakfast brunch.

    If you want to be woken up by housekeeping, not only by their knock, but by their need to slam things as they are cleaning, this is the place!!! They should offer how to clean quietly in training.

    Nice hotel - very modern lobby area & cool bar upstairs. Rooms are on the small side & could do with an upgrade, but overall pretty good.

    The revolving cocktail lounge is table service only so plan for that if you just want a quick drink before heading out.

    If you want to eat fast, skip the food court in the Westin and go underground across the street at 505 Flower. (next to Paul Hastings) They have a nicer atmosphere and a MUCH better selection.

    There's always a minimum of like 12 valets no matter what hour so you never have to wait for your car as long as you call ahead.
